Isle of Man Easter Festival 28-31 March
10km: 35.26
Hill ~4miles: 24.50
5km: 16.59
Overall: 20th place. 

Definitely the coldest edition to the festival I've yet attended - temperatures in the very low positive degrees and snow on the ground! Hilly 10km on Friday to begin with, managed the first 3km ok then definitely felt the lack of training, dropping back through the field steadily as the race (and the hills!) went on. Decided to risk the Peel hill race on Sat, despite the very muddy and slippery conditions  I managed to get through it without wrecking my ankle further - fortunately for much of the route I was largely running alone and could ease off at the more tricky downhill points. Some substantial rest and a bus part-way back to Douglas on the usual 10+mile running pub crawl helped ahead of the 5km, a flat but windy route on road along the harbour front. Ran fantastically for the first 3km again - 3.12/km pace - but then began to feel the ankle, slowing but recording my first sub-17min 5k since September! Overall a good weekend of running and very stiff legs at the end of it; one year I might be able to go to this without carrying some sort of injury...

Weekly total: 83.1km
